Motorcraft FL-820-S Oil Filter

Be sure to check with the Auto or Truck Manufacturer to find the correct SIZE of Oil Filter for your vehicle. Amazon's Parts Locator says that the Motorcraft FL820S does not fit my 1995 Mercury Grand Marquis, 4.6 Litre V-8 engine. This is incorrect. The fact is that the Motorcraft FL820S is the FORD-recommended filter for my 1995 Mercury engine, and is recommended in almost every application of the Ford /Mercury/Lincoln 4.6 Litre engine size.The Motorcraft FL820S interchanges with the BOSCH 3410, the FRAM TG2, and the K&N 2010.The Motorcraft FL820S has over 50 pleats, high flow rate, silicone anti-drainback valve, and steel end caps.Amazon's current low price ($3.69) is an excellent value for a quality oil filter that's MADE IN USA !!My car is driven in heavy traffic, desert temperatures, mountain driving, and trans-desert trips from Phoenix to L.A.The standard FORD Motorcraft Filters performed just as well as the high-dollar types -- and filtered MUCH better than the K&N, which has a very high flow rate (for racing), but the low 90% efficiency rating of the K&N makes it a no-no for extended oil changes. I wouldn't run a K&N oil filter for more than 3,000 miles -- you'd just be stirring up dirty oil and pumping it through the bearings !! :>(For my American V-8 engine, I have found the best value to be the Motorcraft FL820S Oil Filter and Mobil 1 5-W-20 Extended Life (Synthetic) engine oil. The quality of the oil filter allows for filter changing every 5,000 miles, and the engine oil is changed once-a-year, regardless of miles driven.For maximum oil life, be sure your PCV system is working properly -- Remove and wash out the PCV Valve with Carburetor Cleaner, and check for collapsed and/or damaged PCV hoses. A leaking PCV system will suck un-filtered dirt right into your engine !!1995 Mercury Grand Marquis RS225 HP 4.6 Litre SOHC V-8Modified Air Box w/ K&N Air FilterBosch Impeller Fuel PumpBosch 19 Lb.

Always have put motorcraft filters on my 06 explorer due to its price. They work, cheap, and it's fomoco parts! Can't beat it!! No leaks, always comes off and it fits perfectly. As long as you tighten it and do it correctly I've never had an issue.

Good filter for a good price. I'll be using it on our motorhome engine. I like to stick with OEM filters.

These are GREAT filters with silicone ADBVs. Anti-Dran Back Valves. This holds the oil pressure up towards the top of the engine so when you start your car the next morning, you don't get all the chattering/ticking. The ADBV is made to last, too. Not sure who makes them, now, but Purolator was making part of these filters a few years ago, which is a GREAT company. Never had one fail. Run Motorcraft filters on Fords and AC/Delco on GMs. Don't waste your money on some quadruple prices "Royal Purple" filter or some kind of Mobil1 filter. They are NOT better for your engine. These are designed for your OHC engines with quality components.

A good price for a Motorcraft filter. Worked perfectly for my 1997 Ford F150 4.6 L engine.

Needed Ford F150 with 5.4 liter. These filters have always given the appearance of a quality, well fitted product.Price is fair and better than the local part stores.

Genuine Ford filters, work perfectly.

Good filter, easy way of getting them
